I decided to use my personal holiday yesterday and go to the state park that's close to me. This guy was waiting to be a tour guide to put you on where the fish are at the lake. I respectfully declined. #Spooktober #lake #lakeside #lakelife #tourguide #stateemployee #skeleton #fishing

The dew of the morning Sunk chill on my brow-- It felt like the warning Of what I feel now. Thy vows are all broken, And light is thy fame; I hear thy name spoken, And share in its shame. From the poem, "When We Two Parted" by Lord Byron #poetry #ImageAndVerse #nature #Stunday #EastCoastKin

Here comes the rain again Falling on my head like a memory Falling on my head like a new emotion I want to walk in the open wind I want to talk like lovers do Want to dive into your ocean Is it raining with you? The Eurythmics #window #rain #rainydays #ImageAndVerse #blurredvision

Sometimes I don't want to talk Sometimes I just want it to be Me and my thoughts On a two lane road My thoughts The clouds and me ~Forty8 #highway #lonelyhighway #cloudy #peace #thoughts #ImageAndVerse #travel #metime

This weather phenomena drew a crowd of us to the river. There was a fireworks show inside the cloud. There was no thunder or high winds. It was indeed a quiet storm. #clouds #lightning #quietstorm #weather #nature #Stunday #WeekNForNights #reflection #river #riverlife #EastCoastKin #DiscoverSC

I've gotta take a little time A little time to think things over I better read between the lines In case I need it when I'm older Opening verses from "I Want To Know What Love Is" from Foreigner. #sun #sunrise #tree #barn #silhouettes #ImageAndVerse #Stunday #nature #OrangeSun #Photography

A pool party of sorts with a posse of Wood Storks and a few Egrets in the mix. There was no arguing. There were no attacks. Two different species of wild birds existed peacefully in the same space. Are they really wild or are we humans the wild ones! #wildlife #wildlifephotography #birds

I left the party downstairs at the bar so that I could come back to my room for this view. Me, the view, and a perfectly concocted white russian. #window #windowview #cityscape #night #nightshot #windowshot #WeekNforNights #EastCoastKin #myrtlebeach #sccoast

There are some places I go and I have to stare and ask without expecting an answer, "How is this kind of beauty possible?” The answer is not as important as the fact I was there at that exact moment to see it. #nature #reflection #sunset #lake #lakelife #mylife #yourlife #EastCoastKin

I take a lot of bad snaps. This pine cone is one of them. This accident came about as I forgot to change my settings from shooting in low light earlier that morning. But sometimes, I can appreciate the mistakes I make. #photography #pinecone #blownhighlights #artbyaccident #photograph #nature
